what day is it again?

I am so far behind! But lets see since the last post, we have returned from OKC and enjoyed a relaxing weekend just doing a whole lotta nothing! We got our deployment chain started, goes all through the hallway and comes into the kitchen - takes us only to January!! So prolly close to Thanksgiving, we'll start another chain and have that take us through next July so that way we're OVER on days instead of under. We'll tear off one every night :)

Had our AC looked at again today since it went out again. I had noticed yesterday that it was getting really hot in here, and sure enough it was like 86 or 89! Luckily it was raining a bit outside so we opened the windows and had a cool evening. Sleep was ok, with windows open. The guy came out today and did some service on the AC unit, but said that the compressor is going out, and because it's having to work so hard it may not last too much longer. SO that is on my semi to-do list to save in case we have to replace that. Also, have to pay one last payment on the Maxima - still not sure why that is but it's not a full payment it's like $300. So I'm working a few issues all at once.

The next few months we should have a few things paid down considerably, which will be a huge relief. I was hoping to have a bit in savings from GI Bill, but I'm going to just use it right away to pay things off, instead of waiting to pay it off later once I had $$ saved up. I won't make much on interest, and I want these things gone!

I'm so proud of you baby, I love you a million, and I pray for you and your soldiers every day -

lovessss

Then after dinner Nita and James started talking about coming out to Colorado for Christmas and going skiing- b/c I said yall should come out to see us and go skiing :) so they said yes! Not sure when, but they're seriously thinking about it. Oh yah I remember how it came up, Nita said someone at work they stopped giving each other gifts for Christmas and instead do a trip. So I said, cool y'all could come ski in Colorado! So thats cool- will msg you about that too since I don't know how long before you read he blog again. Tomorrow not doing much, just homework.
